the lighthouse in someone else's dark night
What better way to start writing here than by telling you, my dear ambitious and sensitive friend, how incredibly inspiring you are.
You don’t always feel this way, I know, but this is why I’m here. To remind you of how brave, persistant, determined, passionate and caring you are.
I’m sure you have your difficulties, and you have to navigate your personal and challenging circumstances. At times, you feel that they limit you and hold you back, preventing you to do what you’d like to do, they way you believe you must do it.
Sometimes you’re frustrated, sometimes you’re lost, sometimes you wish it was easier, and maybe sometimes you doubt yourself, and you wonder if it was the right choice for you. Because choosing the path of soulful entrepreneurship is hard, and not everyone can do it.
But you, you keep showing up. You look for unique and creative ways to make it work despite your circumstances, despite your fears and uncertainties because you are connected to your mission: helping someone else.
The world needs more people like you. I need more people like you.
And because I want you to succeed and to stick around, I have to ask you something.
Please protect your energy and take care of yourself first.
You don’t need to go fast. You don’t need to betray yourself or to pretend that your challenges and life circumstances don’t exist. Take them into consideration, honor your needs, make your lifestyle sustainable and nurture your wellbeing so you can keep doing what you do. So you can keep being a lighthouse in someone else’s dark night.
So you can keep make this world a bit more loving and meaningful.
